What is the reason for facial twitching after falling asleep?

Patient's question:

Last night, after falling asleep, she suddenly made bubbling sounds from her mouth, with a lot of saliva flowing out, and her entire face was twitching. After we woke her up, it was fine again.

Doctor's answer:

When experiencing a cramp, don't panic. First, check and identify which muscle is spasming, then target that muscle for treatment.
2 When muscle cramps occur, usually just stretching the spasming muscle in the opposite direction can relieve the pain. When treating, pay attention to keeping warm, apply even force during stretching, and avoid violence to prevent muscle strain.
